'Like cattle, no food for 16 hours': Newlywed woman, held for 140 days, recalls US detention horror
A newly wedded bride from the US state of Texas who was released from Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) custody on Thursday has said she was treated like "cattle" during her detention. Ward Sakeik , a stateless Palestinian woman married to a US citizen, was detained in February on the way back from her honeymoon. She was released by the immigration detention after more than four months of confinement. Ward spoke publicly for the first time since being detained at a Miami airport in February. She had been held in ICE custody for 140 days after returning from her honeymoon.

After arriving back from the US Virgin Islands with her husband Taahir Shaikh, Sakeik said, "I was put in a gray tracksuit and shackles immediately," during a press conference held in Dallas-Fort Worth. "I was handcuffed for 16 hours without any water or food on the bus. I was moved around like cattle," Sakeik added. 'I was overfilled with joy and a little shock,' she said at a press conference on Thursday. 'I mean, it was my first time seeing a tree in five months.' The US government tried to dump me in a part of the world where I had no idea where I was going, what I was doing," WSWS quoted Sakeik as saying.

"Any claim that there is a lack of food or subprime conditions at ICE detention centers are false," Department of Homeland Security Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin told Newsweek. "All detainees are provided with proper meals, medical treatment, and have opportunities to communicate with their family members and lawyers. Ensuring the safety, security, and well-being of individuals in our custody is a top priority at ICE. Meals are certified by dietitians." ICE attempted to deport Ward Sakeik The development comes at a time when President Donald Trump has pledged to carry out the largest mass deportation operation in US history, and in the initial months of his second term, his administration has deported more than 100,000 people. Anyone living in the country without legal status is considered a "criminal," the White House has said.

The second time, Sakeik was told once again she would be deported – despite a judge's order barring her removal from her home state of Texas. Her legal team said at around 5 a.m. CT on Monday, Sakeik was woken by guards and told to prepare to leave the facility immediately, according to the legal team, in what was the second attempt by ICE to deport Sakeik unlawfully. "These deportations, they just happened all of a sudden—I was not given a phone call," Sakeik said at the press conference. She added that she was able to call her husband, but "a phone call was not provided to me from ICE." "I just had to wait and take a very, very long time to pack my stuff to just buy time to wait for the phone system to work to call Taahir," she said.

Department of Homeland Security Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin told NewsWeek, "Ward Sakeik was not 'complying with immigration policies.' The facts are she is in our country illegally." "Ensuring the safety, security, and well-being of individuals in our custody is a top priority at ICE.
